Kitty Face
5.5x5.5 watercolor in Arteza sketchbook done yesterday from old cat reference photos. I liked this one because it only shows the viewer a portion of the cat's face with its eyes front and center.

'ritaville for National Margarita Day
7.5x11 watercolor, 140 lb cold press paper. I painted this while in Albuquerque in 2009. I used Winsor Newton paper and travel kit. Colors: Cadmium yellow pale, ultramarine blue, yellow ochre, cadmium yellow hue, cobalt blue, burnt sienna, cadmium red pale, sap green, burnt umber, alizarin crimson, and viridian. Since today is National Margarita Day I posted this then ordered a frozen one with lime and a rim of salt along with some hot Tex Mex food.
